Unintentional textured pattern left in the paint by the roller.

• Use of incorrect roller cover.
   
• Use of incorrect rolling technique.

See Lead Information.
         

• Follow label and data page directions for the appropriate roller cover type and nap size. In general:
          
  
  • Latex paints use synthetic fiber covers.
  • Alkyd/oil paints use lambs' wool, mohair, or other natural fiber covers.
  • Smooth surfaces: flats and satins use 3/8" covers; semi-gloss and gloss use 1/4" covers.
  • Textured surfaces: (depending on the texture) 1/2", 3/4", or longer.
        
• Quality rollers generally ensure adequate film (e.g., primer or paint) thickness and uniformity.
   
• When using latex paint, predampen roller covers with water and shake out excess water.
   
• Condition the roller by wetting it with the paint for 5 minutes prior to using.
   
• Do not let paint build up at roller ends.
